FS2004 Northeast Convair 240

Northeast Airlines Convair 240 livery brings 1950s short-haul character to the classic pressurized twin, capturing the carrier’s early fleet and later Pan Am acquisitions in crisp period-correct markings. Designed as textures only for FS2004, it requires the Tom Gibson and Greg Pepper CV-240 base model and complements vintage airline routes with an authentic virtual cockpit backdrop.
